Question: was the URL sent through Facebook chat an HTTPS URL? If it was, that would imply Facebook's involvement. But if it wasn't, it's possible that Facebook's scan was sniffed in transit and the URL was then sent over to the third party for scanning.
I also assume from the timezone in your log that your server is outside the US. It would be interesting to test this with a link to a server located inside the US, to try to determine where the interception is taking place.

- agwa 12y agoYou're talking about the Facebook website, which is irrelevant to this discussion. If someone sends an insecure HTTP URL through Facebook chat, then Facebook has to make an insecure HTTP connection to that URL in order to scan it, which leaks the URL, even if the chat session was using HTTPS.
